A lot of people who watch DVDs are people who are interested in, if not moviemaking, then creativity in general.

Usually a lot of moviemaking is boring.

Your mind just goes to the craziest idea to lure people into the theater, and then you write your script around those elements.

I don't like having two versions (of a DVD). People will buy the first one and not buy the second, and that's the one I want them to see.

I learned a lot from Ana Ortiz, who plays my sister in 'Sleeping with the Fishes'.

Don't give me any money, don't give me any people, but give freedom, and I'll give you a movie that looks gigantic.
